BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the owner of the Dance Studio and the originator of SWIPLO - a platform for managing dance schools.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Da Vinci Studio, and what were your goals?

For years, I have been successfully running the Dance Studio in two locations. We are developing fast. I had lacked a solution that would have allowed me to manage the School, classes and payments in a simple and intuitive way. My main goal was to create a solution to facilitate this process. When we developed the tool, all I needed was a reliable partner who would make an upgrade. Da Vinci Studio helped us with this and created applications and a landing page for us.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

I chose Da Vinci Studio considering their experience. In addition to monitoring and ensuring the security of the software, they created an intuitive application and landing page that I needed. I was not disappointed. Their programmers met my expectations at every stage of product design and implementation.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

We started with a meeting where we discussed the roles and scope of activities. We have also selected a team to deal with our project. The team swiftly started to act. Programmers from Da Vinci Studio updated our project, programmed and launched a dedicated application for students and clients of dance schools that use the Swiplo system.

In addition, they created an intuitive landing page for us, which contains all the information about the system we offer for dance schools and the mobile application. They worked with sprints, and the task was set up with my team on a regular basis.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We were supported by developers: Frontend, Backend, React, Devops and Project Manager.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

We have created a system for managing dance schools. Importantly, each employee of a given school (manager, owner, reception, instructor) has defined functions in the system and a fixed hourly rate. Thanks to this, the system itself calculates the payouts for the hours worked.

Additionally, it enables the creation of statistics and financial reports. Thanks to the application, customers can sign up for another class or workshop on their phone! We have also created a separate account for the parent, who can easily and legibly check whether the child has an active pass for classes and, if necessary, pay for it.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

Communication was at the highest level. All our requests were met. Most often we communicated via e-mail, telephone and personal meetings at the Da Vinci Studio headquarters. Importantly, they delivered the project to us on time and within the set budget.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
